It's tres jolie, Coco. Tres jolie!

Elle Fanning is a "dangerous girl" in the first trailer for "Drive" director Nicolas Winding Refn's latest stylish thriller "The Neon Demon," which is set in the glitzy world of high-fashion modeling.

Fanning (Maleficent, Trumbo) plays Jesse, a young inspiring fashion model. After moving to Los Angeles from a small town, Jesse finds herself being seduced by the city's fame-obsessed culture. And as Jesse works her way up the ranks in the fashion world, she begins to suffer the psychological side effects of achieving success. It's "Black Swan" meets any cover of Vogue.

Also starring Christina Hendricks, Jena Malone, Abbey Lee, Bella Heathcote, and Keanu Reeves, "The Neon Demon" was acquired by Amazon Studios. But it's slated to be released in theaters in June before it becomes available on Amazon Prime. It's also set to make its world premiere next month at the Cannes Film Festival, where it will be playing in competition.
